gears

So... obviously plastic sucks.. but did this happen due to a slipper clutch being set to tight? I replaced it with metal gears, I still want to learn though. My friends that put my ECX AMP MT together for me and from what I could tell.. the slipper didn't slip at all so I think that is why it...

I played with upping the pinion gear to a 22 tooth thinking it would ease some torque and push it to the top end. It did give the truck a ridiculous top end speed, which you would never be able to control on a short course, but I immediately started stripping spur gears. I stripped my third in 2...

Hi So I was trying to do the metal gear set for the amp. I could not get the bearings out of the plastic gear to use for the new metal one. Is the correct part number ECX1015? I only need one. I uploaded pics below Thanks all!

Could bad gear mesh cause the motor to get hot fast? Also how do I know if I'm under geared or over geared?

Howdy, I've got a gen 1 Ruckus. I just put the Castle Creations SCT Combo into it, with Sidewinder 3 ESC and 3800Kv 4-pole motor. I have all metal gearing and Hot Racing steel star drive CV's, and Traxxas aluminum turnbuckles on all 4 corners. Running on Dynamite 3300 MaH 7 cell nimh (but...

So I pull the trigger and something is spinning but it isn't the wheels! Where do I attack this from looking at the truck from the rear...the left side or the right side or does it matter? I'm assuming there's a gear stripped somewhere in the transmission.

Looking for recommendations for a titanium high tour digital servo. I think the analog servo is the reason my receiver went bad. The manual said you must use a digital servo, but did I listen?? NOPE! now I'm out a new 4210 AVC!! oh well, live and learn (I guess) Also is the titanium that much...

Trying to upgrade my tornmemt for some serious speed on a 2s lipo. Have a castle 3800kv motor . What size if pinion should i be using for bashing?

its been getting worst every time I use it. I can hear the gears making a loud noise and the truck won't move uphill or on grass. I took motor cover to make sure the gears were meshing right and they are. The big gear (that is driven by the pinion on the motor) moves with the drive shaft and...
